(Hürriyet Newspaper, 4 August 2025)

            Hairless Ali Eren still had that killer look.

The dreadful incident occurred the day before yesterday in 

Trabzon's Beşikdüzü district.  Murderer Ali Eren Somun

climbed to the balcony of his estranged wife Sinem Somun

(27)'s home, entered and shot her dead with a revolver.  He

also wounded watchman E.E., who came to the scene, with

a knife. 

Police determined from camera footage that Ali Eren Somun

fled to Sinop and hid in a tent in a camping area there,

shaving off his hair, beard and eyebrows (!) to conceal his

identity.  Nevertheless, he was captured. 

Ali Eren Somun had brazenly written on social media that

the number of murdered women, previously 132, was now

"133" (!).
